I've stayed at Barcelo properties all over Mexico and the Barcelo Ixtapa is by far the best so far. Fast check-in/check-out. Very friendly and accomodating staff. We stayed in one of the Premium suites on the 10th floor. Beautiful view of the ocean and entire beach front area. We did have a small maintenance problem with the room. Within 10... More

Rented the Presidental suite for 2 weeks. We're ready to change hotels. Constant disco drum beats by pool. At night they play loud really bad music till after midnight right in front of the rooms. Complained to manager, if not better tonight, we're out of here to a more civil hotel. Don't bother leaving your sliders open to hear ocean... More

We chose Ixtapa for the beautiful weather and beaches! Our resort met our expectations with friendly staff and a great effort was put towards the couples wedding. The rooms could use a little updating, but most of our time was spent outside so it wasn't really that big of a deal. The entertainment staff really works hard to ensure that... More

This is a very popular place among locals resulting in an overwhelming number of guests during the easter week. Not really the "amazing" getaway that so many other reviewers experienced. It takes a little strategy to sort out accommodations for 4 or more family members. If you are traveling with your partner, you may want to spend a lot more... More
